## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability alpha-stream-agentdiet-dev-zero-bloat-a2a-live-web-search-tech-news-536718ee
```

Example prompt: Search for the latest news and HackerNews discussions about 'open source LLM benchmarks 2025' and give me clean, token-efficient results I can use to ground my response.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs real-time, ad-free grounding data from tech-community and news sources (Google News RSS + HackerNews) without scraping overhead. It is ideal for fact-grounding LLM responses, monitoring recent tech developments, or retrieving current headlines at low cost ($0.01/call) with token-efficient output. Prefer it over general web scrapers when you specifically need clean news and HackerNews content without token bloat.

## Known failure modes

- Empty or too-short query string returns validation error
- Upstream Google News RSS or HackerNews Algolia unavailable causing partial or failed results
- Rate limiting or payment failure (HTTP 402) if x402 payment not fulfilled
- Very niche queries may return zero results if no matching articles exist
- Network timeouts if upstream sources are slow to respond
